Even though I never met Lexy-the-Elderbull in person, she touched my heart and made my day just a little bit brighter when her posts would pop up in my feed. For those of you who don’t know, Lexy was never far from her trusty sidekick, Bruce the Shark. Together they navigated this world of uncertainty and chaos, educating and advocating for pitbulls and shark preservation. And they did it ALL with kindness and love.Magnificent and incomparable Lexy the Elderbull – we will miss you always and forever.

    Your dedicated cartoon to your Lexy the Elderbull was so touching and sweet. My little Bubbie is only 5 years old but when I see other precious sweet dogs leaving, I well up inside thinking how will ever let her go. I am sorry that I have no magic words to say except that my heart feels your sorrow and I hope Lexy gives you a sign that she still is around you.
    Hugs to you.

  9. I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my beautiful Jessy two year ago and still miss her. I have a new fur baby, Sam, he dis not replace her, I think she sent him to me. I adore him but will never forget her. My thought are with you and Lexi will be waiting for you at the rainbow bridge

    So sorry for your loss.
    It never gets easier, no matter how many you lose. What does matter is that you (and others, I am sure) spent their lifetimes learning from them and becoming better humans because of what you learned.
    Heaven just got a little brighter and Lexy will be waiting at the door to greet you when you get there.

    My heart aches for you knowing that you lost your dear Lexy. This cartoon is so poignant that it brought me to tears. Losing such a close member of one’s furrever family is devastating. Hugs, positive and healing energy go out to you.

  42. I am new to your posts but in the last few days you have brought me humorous heartbreaking comfort as I had to say goodbye to my 14 year old Jack Russell, precious, feisty, bossy and loving Sophie. She changed my life when she was 8 weeks old and she will forever change my life on her passing🥺. I am so sorry for your loss, my heartfelt thoughts are with you. I have also have a 12 year old Dalmatian cross that only knew life with Sophie.

    Thank you for your heartfelt honesty in your drawings from fear, depression, Loneliness, and the incredible joy of a dogs unwavering LOVE ❤️
